Thanks for all that grate information from some of the gratest minds of the century [dunno which century, just "the" century].

Hopefully we can get past this menace and regroup our forces to combat that other deadly menace of Di-Hydrogen Monoxide, which as we know is a powerful substance:

1) In gaseous form it can cause severe burns.

2) In liquid form, accidentally inhaling any large quantity of it causes instant death.

3) The solid form is capable of destroying your skin, and prolonged exposure can lead to loss of limbs or other extremities.

4) Can lead to large-scale corrosion of objects as large as huge iron bridges.

5) In large quantities can inundate entire villages or even cities as was heavily documented in the newsmedia last year.

6) Has likely been a factor in the extinction of many species.

7) Is a component of acid rain.

8) Has likely caused permanent dependancy in billions of people far worse than any addictive drug.

9) Almost no place on Earth exists where this menace can''t be found. Even beyond the major land masses.

10) Some quantity of this menace has been either in or near virtually every toxic waste dump on the planet.

cjl [Stop the insanity now!]

Your daughter will not remember having an over-weight dad, but she will delight in having one with a terrific sense of humor.

I avoided reading this post until now because of the title. I figured I would have to try to refute the claims. And now I guess I have to. It is just plain silly.

You see, it is not true that meat eaters have gotten old and died. That is a silly conclusion researchers have come to because there aren't any old looking meat eaters! But it isn't because they have all died, it is because we never get old. Ever.

And some of us have so much energy that we are outside playing wiht our hula hoops. Right now.
